COLUMBUS, Ohio – Rogers State men's soccer's Marcos Vasallo has been named a Division 2 Conference Commissioners Association All-American, the organization announced on Tuesday.
 
A native of Madrid, Spain, Vasallo earned a spot on the 13-member Second Team after leading the Hillcats with 11 goals and four assists for 26 points. A D2CCA First Team All-Region selection and GAC/MIAA Midfielder of the Year, he etched his name in history as he scored the final two goals that delivered RSU's first NCAA Tournament win against rival Southern Nazarene.
 
Sports information directors from NCAA Division II schools and conferences selected the three D2CCA All-America teams. The process begins at the regional level with all first-team all-region picks advancing to the national ballot. A total of 39 student-athletes representing 32 different institutions filled out the three teams. This is the 18th year that the teams have been selected since the All-America program began in 2006.
 
The Division II Conference Commissioners Association encourages and promotes Division II athletics and high standards of sportsmanship as important elements of higher education. The CCA is a key communications link among the conferences as they discuss views, policies and regulations that impact Division II intercollegiate athletics and works closely with the NCAA as a communications channel to NCAA Division II member colleges and universities.
